This is a gift you could give to any friend, sister, or relative who has their own place and appreciates decor:) Its as easy as it sounds. Find some fun wrapping paper (or even wall paper) with no shine finish.

I picked out some printed paper at Midori. Its nice and think with no gloss or shine finish.

Instructions: Find a matte and frame that will compliment your paper well. (I found a great one at Pottery Barn, but usually find frames at thrift stores.) Measure and cut your paper accordingly. Tape the wrapping paper to the back of the matte frame using acid free tape if possible. This is a fun way to personalize a gift for a loved one. You can get a couple prints out of one gift wrap sheet or roll.Would love to see your outcome if you choose to make! (Last weeks handmade holiday gift here.)

Love, Anna

P.S. Last call for sponsors for the IHOD Gift Guide! Only a few spots left. Lots of exposure guaranteed:) Please email for info.

Been racking my brain what to do with all these thrift store frames I have have bought over time and have just been sitting around. Could not have come across this at a better time. Love this. Doing this. Thank you. :)

Ohmygosh this is a genius idea, Anna! We have a few cute lil paper shops here that carry high-quality papers with the cutest designs. I'm definitely going to "borrow" your idea this Christmas! Thanks for sharing :)

Super easy and creative idea Anna :) I love this kind of DIY and I'm trying to propose it in my blog too. I could also use this idea for myself or anyone who gets easily bored with art on their space. Just switch the paper and hello new art!! You are amazing:)

I got a sample of a wallpaper that I absolutely loved and framed it in a similar way. I love how easy and cheap it was! Plus, this is perfect for switching up the decor come holiday time :-) Smart idea Anna!
